I wish I had your confidence, but I wouldn't install an Intel CPU in my personal rig next time, especially with how their handling the entire situation.

Yeah, they're being pretty stubborn. Though properly reacting to the issue could actually cost them quite a bit. Replacing every single Intel CPU out there is actually physically impossible. The least thing that they should do is to fix whatever next CPU generation is coming in hardware. But it looks like they're not even willing to do that, which is kinda sad. Stupid capitalism and its monopolies.

I hear you. Even their software solution for the vulnerability is stupid. Linus Torvalds had one of his famous rants on Intel's ineptitude. I hope it'll come back to bite them later on.
